October 13th is widely understood as Treat Yo Self Day — at least in New York City where OddFellows is offering its customers a boozy ice cream treat. In a collaboration with Baileys Original Irish Cream Liqueur, the popular ice cream parlor is adding an alcohol-infused sundae to its menu starting October 13th and rolling out throughout the month of November.
The boozy ice cream treat consists of a Baileys-infused espresso soft serve base. The toppings present a mixture of flavor and texture as they boast a caramel sauce with notes of Irish Cream, as well as crushed coffee soil and chocolate wafer pearls. Dubbed the 'Baileys Everyday Sunday,' the creation is, without a doubt, a good way to enjoy and celebrate the 2018 Treat Yo Self Day.
